SNETTERTON SIGNALS SEASON RESTART

The summer break is over for the Formula Renault UK teams who all head
off to Snetterton in Norfolk this week for an action-packed weekend of
racing. The CRS Racing team is refreshed and ready to go and hoping that
Harry Tincknell, Robert Foster-Jones and Michael Lyons will be adding to
their points tally at fast and furious Snetterton.

Currently in fifth place in the standings, Harry Tincknell will be
pushing hard to move back up the order as the second half of the season
begins.

"I'm really looking forward to getting back out on track at
Snetterton this weekend," said Harry. "Snetterton is where I
took my first two race victories last season in a wet and cold Winter
Series so it holds some good memories. I also went quickest there at the
last official test day in the dry so I think no matter what conditions
the British summer throws at us I think we are in good shape! The season
got off to a really good start with five podiums in seven races,
including the win at Rockingham and although we had a poor weekend by my
standards at Croft I feel that we can now really push on in the second
half of the season as it's all still to play for at the top of the
championship. I've been working really hard during the last few
weeks and I know the team has been also. I cannot wait to get back in the
car on Friday morning and hopefully be at the top of the
timesheets!"

Robert Foster-Jones is another CRS Racing driver who is raring to go when
the season resumes at Snetterton.

"I'm looking forward going into the second half of the
season," he said. "I have a positive attitude that we can do
quite well and get some good results. In the long break we've just
had I was training hard every day in order to gain as much as of an
advantage as possible over my rivals. Snetterton is one of my better
tracks and I have always gone well there in testing so I am confident
between my engineer and myself we can get a good set up and get a good
result."

Mick Lyons has been making very good progress so far this season and,
after working hard on his fitness during the break, he is ready to get
stuck in at Snetterton.

"It's great to be getting back in the car this
weekend," said Mick. "The break has been good for me as it
allowed me some time to get the metal work taken out of my shoulder and
get back up to full race fitness. Snetterton is a good high-speed circuit
and lap times are always really close there, which should make for some
good racing. We were on the back foot in the test here due to tyre issues
but I'm confident going into the weekend and can't wait to see
where we stand. My key for this weekend is to get two good grid slots
under my belt to make Sunday's job easier. The last race showed I
had the pace to run with the quickest guys out there and I'm just keen to
build on that to get my first breakthrough result this season."

Rounds 11 and 12 of the Formula Renault UK Championship take place this
Sunday at 0950hrs and 1530hrs.
